Tan Y Bryn Reviews

Danielle
Family break away over NewYear, the cottage was decorated for Christmas with a tree and lights which was a lovely touch. We absolutely loved the log fire, Hot tub and sauna. kitchen had everything we needed, plenty of utensils, crockery, roasting dishes pans etc. All bedrooms were clean and fresh with plenty of storage. Great, safe enclosed garden for our dog to wander around. We didnt venture out so I cant comment on nearby places. It was just what we wanted, a relaxing new year break away. Weve already booked to come back in the summer!
Klaudia
The whole place was lovely however the sauna kept on tripping out so we didntbget to enjoynit
Philip
Nice warm cottage with all amenities, so nice knowing our dogs were safe in the grounds. Thank you
Stacey
This house is absolutely stunning the drive up to it is perfect in every way . However the cottage lacks charm. We were very disappointed of the cleanliness and the overall finish was not of a good standard. No welcome pack or finishing touches which made it feel very unloved and cold. Its such a shame as this place could be perfect. The bathroom is not ideal for 6 people sharing. It needs a shower that can be used by all guests. We ended using the outdoor electric shower as the water was cold. We spent over 900 on a weekend away and felt really deflated afterwards. I have to say Sykes were amazing and dealt with our concerns in a very professional way. I just wish the owner would up the game for what could be a perfect getaway. The hot tub and sauna are great touches but doesnt make up for the lack of charm.
Beautiful rural location, the property was ideal for us with 4 teenagers plus two dogs. Lovely big bedrooms, very comfy beds, cozy log burning fire and well equipped kitchen with farmhouse style large dining table. Most importantly for us though was the dog proof garden, all fenced in and gated and lovely grounds in which to walk them. Hope to be back soon
Suzanne
Beautiful cottage in lovely position. Bedding, towels and hot tub spotless, everything else was dirty , filthy in some areas. TV cannot pick up any channels, no outside Aerial. Toilet seat broken, issues reported via Sykes not repaired. Microwave contained forgotten cooked food of previous occupants as did fridge. Dustpan full to overflowing of dirt. Headboard could write name in the muck not dust. We have pictures. Needs professional deep clean. No welcome booklet so had to go through Sykes with issues still awaiting call back from last Wednesday.
